There are so many, in fact, that of the more than 175 million US subscribers, only a fraction of them use most of the benefits.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These features include using AmazonFresh to buy tons of products with free two-day shipping. Another benefit included with your membership is access to their on-demand streaming site known as <a href=\"https:\/\/amazon-prime-video.en.softonic.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Amazon Prime Video<\/strong><\/a>. Prime Video has gained popularity since its launch in 2006.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Is Amazon Prime Video?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Amazon Prime Video is an <strong>on-demand video streaming service<\/strong> that features thousands of popular movie and series titles in its collection. Among some of the more well-known titles, you\u2019ll also find original Amazon Prime movies. This streaming service is very similar to <a href=\"https:\/\/hbo.en.softonic.com\/android\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">HBO<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/netflix.en.softonic.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Netflix<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/hulu.en.softonic.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Hulu<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With a <strong>subscription to Amazon Prime<\/strong>, you no longer need the services of a cable company. With your Amazon Prime subscription and access to the internet, you can stream movies and shows from anywhere on your chosen device. If you don\u2019t have, or want, an Amazon Prime subscription, you can also sign up for Amazon Prime Video on its own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Prime Video currently features <strong>approximately 24 000 movies <\/strong>and <strong>2 100 series<\/strong>. You also have the option to buy or rent movies or episodes that aren\u2019t currently listed. Among the vast library of video content, Amazon Prime Video also has a Prime Video Channels feature, which allows users to add streaming access to other popular services such as HBO or Cinemax at a small additional cost. This means you can access all of your favorite streaming content from one convenient platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Much Is Amazon Prime Video?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you have an Amazon Prime subscription, you have <strong>access to Amazon Prime Video<\/strong> and many other Amazon Prime benefits such as shopping, delivery, music streaming, reading, and more. The subscription is $13.00\/month or $119.00\/year. Alternatively, you can also buy a subscription for only Amazon Prime Video at $5.99\/month. This subscription will allow you to use the on-demand movie and series streaming service without all the other additional benefits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1019\" height=\"588\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2021\/12\/Complete-Guide-to-Amazon-Prime-Video-2.jpg\" alt=\"Complete Guide to Amazon Prime Video\" class=\"wp-image-180989\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2021\/12\/Complete-Guide-to-Amazon-Prime-Video-2.jpg 1019w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2021\/12\/Complete-Guide-to-Amazon-Prime-Video-2-300x173.jpg 300w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2021\/12\/Complete-Guide-to-Amazon-Prime-Video-2-768x443.jpg 768w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2021\/12\/Complete-Guide-to-Amazon-Prime-Video-2-150x87.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1019px) 100vw, 1019px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Cancel Amazon Prime Video Subscription?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you want to find out <strong>how to cancel your Amazon Prime Video Subscription<\/strong>, there are a few ways you can do so. You can cancel the subscription online through the website, email, or even telephone. Before canceling your subscription, make sure that you\u2019re <a href=\"https:\/\/amazon-prime-video.en.softonic.com\/articles\/amazon-prime-video-tips-tricks\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">getting the most of your Amazon Prime Video<\/a> subscription to see if it is worth the money you\u2019re spending.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cancel Subscription Online<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To cancel your subscription online, go to the Amazon Prime Video website and <strong>sign in to your account<\/strong>. Navigate to the \u2018Prime Video Channels\u2019 page, and access the \u2018Accounts\u2019 page.

Click on \u2018Update Settings\u2019 in the \u2018Manage Membership\u2019 box and wait for the drop-down list. Click on \u2018End Membership\u2019 and confirm your cancellation in the list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cancel Subscription Via Email<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can also cancel your membership via email by writing to cis@amazon.com.

You can use it to <strong>stream movies or series<\/strong> through your browser or the handy app available for <a href=\"https:\/\/amazon-prime-video.en.softonic.com\/download\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Windows<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/amazon-prime-video.en.softonic.com\/android\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Android<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/amazon-prime-video.en.softonic.com\/iphone\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">iPhone<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once you\u2019re on the Amazon Prime Video website or have the app open on your chosen device, you\u2019ll have to sign in to your account.

Once signed in, you can browse through the different movie and series titles and choose which ones you would like to start watching. To start watching, you simply click on the play button.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Download Amazon Prime Video?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another benefit of using Amazon Prime Video is that you can also <strong>download series and movies to watch offline<\/strong>.

If you want to watch the same title, you will have to download it again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You will only be able to <strong>download content with the app<\/strong> on either Windows, Android, or iOS devices.
